Waiting for the Rain to Stop, Seeing the Clear Sky

Life is truly wondrous. You cannot return to the past, nor can you foresee the future. Without moving forward, you'll never know what tomorrow holds. You also won't know that, perhaps, you ...

Greed is human nature

Greed is human nature

"Let's go to the hospital."

This was the last sentence Qi Yue said to Chu Zhiyi in the car.

Qi Yue today seemed different from before. She didn't feel anxious at all, nor did she want to find a place to hide, nor did she overeat.

It seems really different.

"Let's go, Qiyue."

Qi Yue stood at the hospital entrance.

It’s this place again, still not popular, but it really saves lives and heals the wounded, as sacred as he is.

"Fifteen, just pretend like I don't know and go in."

"What about you? You're already here, why don't you go in?"

"He probably doesn't want me to know, so let me not know."

"So you don't want to know the whole story?"

"Of course, I want to know."

Qi Yue waved his hand, and Yi Shiwu naturally lowered his height by one degree.

"What? Qiyue, you're sending me to my death."

"You are kidding, Chu Zhiyi will definitely live a carefree life to the age of 100."

After saying that, he pulled the big boy in front of him towards the elevator.

"Son, are you back?"

The moment Qin Rong saw Lin Lei open the door, she smiled happily, and even her grandson in the living room was very happy.

He glanced behind his son and closed the door.

"Son." Qin Rong wanted to ask something, but when she saw that her son had no intention of expressing himself, she stopped asking.

"Mom, let me spend some money and play for a while."

"Yeah, fine."

This might be the first emotional words her son had said to her recently. No matter what, at least Lan Qiyue fulfilled her promise and really brought her son back.

Human desires never stop. Once there is the first idea, there will be a second one. Greed is human nature.

Before I even reached the ward, I heard the noise inside.

Through the dark crowd, Qi Yue saw the person she had been thinking about day and night. He seemed to have lost weight, and the lines on his face became more handsome. In the reflection of the sunlight, he looked like an angel who had just descended to earth.

However, his face was still pale.

"Boss Zou, this is the latest work plan proposed by our working group. Can you take a look at it when you have time?"

"What do you mean? What's your plan?"

"Ah, that's right. You've all been away from the construction site recently, so we've been reorganizing the overall work. The original construction team was irresponsible and indirectly caused Mr. Shi's injury, so we've stopped them from working."

"What? Stop work? You know that stopping work will cause delays in the construction period. If the project cannot be completed on time, can you afford the consequences?"

Zou Muchu could no longer control his emotions and disregarded his gentlemanly image.

Seeing his brother being wronged, Chu Zhiyi at the door clenched his fists and was about to rush in, but was stopped by Qi Yue.

Chu Zhiyi still wanted to argue with Qi Yue and let him in, but Qi Yue just made a gesture and extinguished his anger.

Qi Yue gently patted Chu Zhiyi's fist, and put her hand on Chu Zhiyi's arm, as if telling him, "Wait."

I don’t know why Qi Yue has such magical power at this moment. She gave me a shot of strong sedative, making me willing to choose to believe and wait and see what happens.

"No, no, no, it's just that the existing construction team has stopped working. It doesn't mean that there won't be new construction teams coming in."

As calm as Yi Shiwu was, he reacted immediately.

"You replaced Lao Song."

Hearing what Yi Shiwu said, Zou Muchu looked at Yu Xing in disbelief.

"Captain Song is your exclusive team, but that doesn't mean we have to choose him. Besides, something as important as construction site safety can be ignored. We are already giving you face by not pursuing compensation."

Since the day Zero was established, whenever there was construction, Team Song's construction team would always take the lead. Even when the project didn't make much profit at first, Old Song never said a word. He really treated these two young men, Zou Muchu and Yi Shiwu, as his own younger brothers.

Originally, Old Song had not planned to come to this project. After all, his home was in Yangbin, and who would be willing to travel through mountains and rivers? However, the construction period was tight, and if the team did not work together well, it would be impossible to complete the task with quality and quantity within the limited time.

Besides money, there is also morality.

Now everything Yu Xing did was stepping on the minefield of Zero's two partners. If it were not a society ruled by law, if looks could kill, Yu Xing would have been riddled with holes long ago.

Seeing that the two people in front of him didn't say anything, Yu Xing became even more arrogant.

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Zou has been accompanying the nurse recently, so he might not know that KTV has already had two drafts rejected."

Sure enough, just as the jargon was finished, Zou Muchu's cell phone rang.

Caller ID: Tao Ran.

"Okay, I understand."

Yi Shiwu looked at Zou Muchu. Zou Muchu didn't say a word at this time, but Yi Shiwu already understood in his heart that what Yu Xing said was right. It was true that difficulties came one after another.

Tao Ran, Qi Yue thought about this name in her heart, searching for the memories belonging to it.

It was the boy who was supposed to come with me. No wonder he didn't go to Wangyue Village. It turned out he was working in some KTV.

At this time, Qiyue had a new question in her mind: what is KTV? She had never heard of it before.

Seeing the two industry leaders helpless in the face of the situation, Yu Xing clearly looked like a villain who had succeeded.

"Since you two know everything, my work is done. I will go back first."

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Yi, I'll welcome you tonight."

After saying that, he led his people towards the ward door.

When I pulled the door handle, the other party pushed it hard and it came into close contact with the door panel.

It has to be said that there is no way to get out of the predicament for the time being, and watching the villain suffer a setback is also a very good choice. This is what Chu Zhiyi thought, and of course, he did it.

Qi Yue walked out of the hospital first and stopped a taxi on the side of the road.

"Hello, welcome home."

I have to say that the chain hotel’s model management really relies on adequate training.

"Here's your ID, please keep it. Your room is 3117. The elevator is on the right. We're glad to have you staying."

Qi Yue nodded in gratitude and followed the signs to find her room.

Looking at the tidy room, I have to say that the Marriott Group is really powerful. Just looking at its hotel chain, it is already a leader in the industry.

People are slaves to desire. Once they want something, they want more. Once they have something, they want more. It is an endless pursuit and a never-ending struggle.

"Zhiyi, go back with your brother Shi first. I have something else to do. I'll go in for a bit."

"Old Zou, what's going on?"

Zou Muchu did not answer, but drove away from the sight of the two people in a hurry.

Chu Zhiyi once again played the role of taking care of the patient.

"Zhiyi, is Qiyue okay at home?"

"It was natural then. They were all graduate students, so what was wrong with that?"

Chu Zhiyi spoke the lines he had prepared long ago without a single flaw.

~~~

"Hey, Qiyue, where are you going?"

"Of course I'm leaving. I'm not leaving now. I'm waiting for these guys to come out together and say hello."

Maybe the sarcasm was not enough, Qi Yue said something else that made Chu Zhiyi laugh and cry.

"Why, are you treating me?"

"Invite them, dream on! I'm lucky I didn't beat them up. I really want to find a dark and windy night to give this leader a good beating."

"Well, don't call me at this time. I don't want to rescue you."

"Why, corporate lawyers are so great? The difference between you and me is that I don't have that certificate."

"Well, it's just amazing."

Chu Zhiyi didn't get any benefits and was very angry.

"Stop making trouble. I'm leaving. If they ask about me, do you know what to say?"

"I know. It's just a few words back and forth. Don't worry, I'm still a good friend to you."

I have to say, if Qi Yue hadn't been in a hurry to leave, she would have thought carefully about this sentence. How could she have ended up in such a situation? What kind of friends would she have made?

"Did she ask me?"

I have to say, it’s different when you have a lover. You can’t say three sentences without mentioning the one in your heart.

"Yeah, I asked. I missed you."

"You're kidding."

"Brother, why don't you make the call yourself? I told you and you didn't believe me."

Don't blame Yi Shiwu. Just based on the fact that Qi Yue's conversation window has been motionless from yesterday until now, if Yi Shiwu didn't have other things to worry about, he would definitely guess that his wife was abducted by someone. Even after getting married, the rival in love is still there.

Seeing Chu Zhiyi handing him his phone, Yi Shiwu took it, put it in his pocket, and said to Chu Zhiyi calmly, "Let's go."

Driving on the road back, the sky in the distance was burning red. If nothing unexpected happens, tomorrow will definitely be a sunny day. Let's leave all the worries to tomorrow. Everyone is very tired today.

"Qiyue, shouldn't you be in Yangbin? Why are you back?"

This was the first sentence Zou Muchu said when he saw Qi Yue.

"Mr. Zou, I have something to ask you."

Even if good brothers give you countless warnings, once things happen, all the lies prepared in advance seem pale and powerless.

When you don’t know how to continue, being honest is a relief.

"Qiyue, this is how it is. Don't blame Shiwu. He's doing this for your own good."

"Mr. Zou, I roughly understand what's going on, but I want to ask you for a favor."

"Don't say that. If this were private, you would still have to beg my sister-in-law. It's not like you're begging for help."

Pedestrians on the roadside are walking hurriedly. Tomorrow is Monday, the beginning of a new working day. We have to wait another five days before we can have a holiday.

"Qiyue, this isn't a good idea."

"Mr. Zou, don't worry, there's nothing wrong."

Women are creatures that should not be provoked easily, especially good-looking and skilled ones, otherwise you will end up in trouble without knowing how.

"Yi Shiwu, if you are the first, I must be the fifteenth."
